• Strong proficiency in Python and common data science / machine learning libraries and frameworks.
• Experience partnering closely with software engineering teams to productionize models and integrate AI capabilities into scalable applications and services.
• Strong knowledge of software development best practices, including version control, testing, code review, CI/CD, and agile delivery methodologies.
• Experience designing experiments, defining success metrics, and using offline and online evaluation methods to assess feature performance.
• Strong understanding of data modeling, data quality, feature engineering, and working with structured and unstructured data.
• Proficiency with SQL and data manipulation techniques, including performance optimization.
• Experience with modern data and ML tooling, including cloud platforms, model serving, orchestration, monitoring, and MLOps practices.
• Ability to guide build-vs-buy decisions and effectively leverage third-party AI platforms, foundation models, or vendor capabilities where appropriate.
• Strong problem-solving skills, including the ability to translate ambiguous business needs into practical technical solutions.
• Ability to write and review detailed technical designs, model documentation, and implementation plans for complex systems.
• Strong skills in setting, communicating, implementing, and achieving business objectives through direct management of others.

Responsibilities

• Partner with product, engineering, design, and business stakeholders to define requirements, prioritize opportunities, and translate business needs into deployable AI solutions.
• Drive delivery of AI/ML features from concept through launch, ensuring solutions are robust, scalable, maintainable, and aligned to business goals.
• Establish and uphold best practices for experimentation, model evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and ongoing optimization of AI systems in production.
• Work closely with engineering teams to operationalize models and AI services, including APIs, batch pipelines, real-time inference, and human-in-the-loop workflows where applicable.
• Help the team focus on pragmatic execution by balancing innovation with speed, reliability, cost, explainability, and operational constraints.
• Define and monitor success metrics for shipped features, and use feedback, telemetry, and experimentation results to drive continuous improvement.
• Write and review technical specifications, implementation plans, and design documents for moderately to highly complex AI-enabled systems.
• Resolve complex technical issues involving data, modeling, integration, deployment, and production performance.
• Mentor and develop team members in both technical execution and business impact, ensuring they are equipped to build and ship high-value AI features.
